Mr, Walker, from the committee on Corporations, reported back several bills without material amendment, among others tho bill to incorporate tho Zauei-vill Hotel Company. Mr. Myers opposed the passngo of I he bill an interfering with private enterprise, and being without tho limits of proper legislation. Mr. Vinal advocated the passage of the bill. Mr. Randall could see no moro propriety in incorporating a company to build a hotel than to build a hog pen. It was a bad precedent, and would bring iu numerous applications. Ho should oppose all such bills. Mr. Walker advocated the piissugo of ihu bill. It did not conflict with private enterpn.e. Private cap-i iinl was not enlisted in such concerns. It did not jmy. Tho best and most celebrated public bouses in the , State, did not p;iy four percent. A combination ol capital was neccsary to construct such public houses as iho interest of towns and the good ol the traveling public required, and to secure this combination a corporation wan iiereinary. Mr. Randall said these enterprises wore good investments. The Neil House, iu this city, waa now paying 7 or 8 per cent., anil would soon pay 10. He could see no good object to bo accompli shed by granting these corHratiotiH. Mr. Myers opposed the bill at some length, and vindicated his consistency in oppoHing su h corjmrutions, aud voting to incorporate rail and plank roads, showing the dill'i-rence between the objects. He had insurmountable objections to this class ol' corporations. Mr. Eckley favored the bill. Ho thought 80or 100,-000 dollars larger sum than private enterprise would be willing to invest. A good Hotel was us necessary for the benefit of travelers as good roads, and if we ry. OHO. incorporate roads to benefit travelers, we should for the same reason incorporate Hotels. Mr. Suilitf saiil he find heard no objections against the bill, of much weight, iu bis mind. It did not in fringe, ou the rights of a singly individual, the project was an iiNjmrtant anil necessary one, n combination of many miiivniiiais was necessary to carry it out, and they needed a name, succession, uud perpetuity, to ensure success, and the Legislature ought to grant these privileges, lie was m iuvor ol n general luw tocon--struct such hotels. Mr. Myers thought thero was n great difference be tween hotels and railroads, as to their claims to corporate rights. Numerous hotels might he built in the same town by private enterprise, aullicieiit to urcomo-date tlm whole traveling, but there could not be such a division of funds in constructing railroads. It was wrong in principle to incorporate a company to con struct a tmimmoth hotel to monopolise all the business of any place, and destroy all the private hotels in that place. This bill was conflicting with private enter- prize. Tlm hill was further advocated by Messrs. Howard and Hutlilf, and omtosed by Messrs. Randall.

Mr. Payne, with $20,000. Mr. Pardee, with $500. Several other sums were mentioned. The question being on the lurgesl sum. Mr. Linton advocated it, and thought if II was till- fd wilh a less sum than $50,000, it would be no object ii pass this bill. Banks of small capital wore at the mercy of heavy business men, and of speculators. It whs necessary that banks should be generally known in order to give their paper a wide circulation and numerous smull banks, could not be thus generally now ii. Mr. Howard was in favor of the sinalleMt possible sum. Banks had heretofore generally started without , npitnl, and he tlmuqht banks iu future should be equally favored. Mr. Myiirs thought as this bill proposud to make the ilder of the paper perfectly secure bv other tncun. it tlid not require a largo capital to give this security. The ew rork syhtem did not icouiro move than one-fourth if the amount of the sum under coniidorniioti, und wore perlec tly sale .and iho breakino of the bank tlid not cprcciate their circulation. If the hill should reuoire mu-tenth more stock deposited ihnn the circulation, or should make stock holders individually liable Ibr the circulation, or ohonM propose a hitdi iutorot on the circulation after suspeuitiou, the paper would nover depredate, aud the capital stock might be safely diniin- ii'ti.

I By Mr. Bruckley, of .1. Cniin and l!t6olhers,of Sene 1 ca county, for a charter to construct a plank road from Meliuore, Seneca county, to Wonvers' Corners, Huron county. Mr, Walker, from the committee on Corporations, reported back several bills without material amendment, among others tho bill to incorporate tho Zauei-vill Hotel Company. Mr. Myers opposed the passngo of I he bill an interfering with private enterprise, and being without tho limits of proper legislation. Mr. Vinal advocated the passage of the bill. Mr. Randall could see no moro propriety in incorporating a company to build a hotel than to build a hog pen. It was a bad precedent, and would bring iu numerous applications. Ho should oppose all such bills. Mr. Walker advocated the piissugo of ihu bill. It did not conflict with private enterpn.e. Private cap-i iinl was not enlisted in such concerns. It did not jmy. Tho best and most celebrated public bouses in the , State, did not p;iy four percent. A combination ol capital was neccsary to construct such public houses as iho interest of towns and the good ol the traveling public required, and to secure this combination a corporation wan iiereinary. Mr. Randall said these enterprises wore good investments. The Neil House, iu this city, waa now paying 7 or 8 per cent., anil would soon pay 10. He could see no good object to bo accompli shed by granting these corHratiotiH. Mr. Myers opposed the bill at some length, and vindicated his consistency in oppoHing su h corjmrutions, aud voting to incorporate rail and plank roads, showing the dill'i-rence between the objects. He had insurmountable objections to this class ol' corporations. Mr. Eckley favored the bill. Ho thought 80or 100,-000 dollars larger sum than private enterprise would be willing to invest. A good Hotel was us necessary for the benefit of travelers as good roads, and if we ry. OHO. incorporate roads to benefit travelers, we should for the same reason incorporate Hotels. Mr. Suilitf saiil he find heard no objections against the bill, of much weight, iu bis mind. It did not in fringe, ou the rights of a singly individual, the project was an iiNjmrtant anil necessary one, n combination of many miiivniiiais was necessary to carry it out, and they needed a name, succession, uud perpetuity, to ensure success, and the Legislature ought to grant these privileges, lie was m iuvor ol n general luw tocon--struct such hotels. Mr. Myers thought thero was n great difference be tween hotels and railroads, as to their claims to corporate rights. Numerous hotels might he built in the same town by private enterprise, aullicieiit to urcomo-date tlm whole traveling, but there could not be such a division of funds in constructing railroads. It was wrong in principle to incorporate a company to con struct a tmimmoth hotel to monopolise all the business of any place, and destroy all the private hotels in that place. This bill was conflicting with private enter- prize. Tlm hill was further advocated by Messrs. Howard and Hutlilf, and omtosed by Messrs. Randall.

Mr. Linton advocated it, and thought if II was till- fd wilh a less sum than $50,000, it would be no object ii pass this bill. Banks of small capital wore at the mercy of heavy business men, and of speculators. It whs necessary that banks should be generally known in order to give their paper a wide circulation and numerous smull banks, could not be thus generally now ii. Mr. Howard was in favor of the sinalleMt possible sum. Banks had heretofore generally started without , npitnl, and he tlmuqht banks iu future should be equally favored. Mr. Myiirs thought as this bill proposud to make the ilder of the paper perfectly secure bv other tncun. it tlid not require a largo capital to give this security. The ew rork syhtem did not icouiro move than one-fourth if the amount of the sum under coniidorniioti, und wore perlec tly sale .and iho breakino of the bank tlid not cprcciate their circulation. If the hill should reuoire mu-tenth more stock deposited ihnn the circulation, or should make stock holders individually liable Ibr the circulation, or ohonM propose a hitdi iutorot on the circulation after suspeuitiou, the paper would nover depredate, aud the capital stock might be safely diniin- ii'ti.

Let citizens of known, probity aud intelligence be designated for electors. 1 1 .... . ,.. i-.a,.i, i;.lu,..uuu , 1,. nr toll days alter Ihe people shall have voted we can leu not only which party has chosen a majority of the electors, hut whom those electors are instructed, by their mstiluelicv, tti vote lor as 1'reiident, nnu wunm as Vice President.
